Abstract:
Under near-optimal conditions, measurements were made of the pumping rate of the upper active levels in He–Eu and He–Sr lasers and the results obtained were (0.6±0.3)×1020 and (1.5±0.5)×1020cm–3sec–1, respectively. The electron density was also measured in these lasers and the values obtained were 1.5×1014 and 3×1014cm–3.
